    I'm laughing so much, that hurts...

    A guy enters in a house with no good intentions. He is in the living room, suddenly he hears a sepulchral voice;
    Jesus is watching you!
    WTF he thinks, I'm hearing voices now. The voice again;
    Jesus is watching you!
    Being no believer, he looks for, find a parrot and laughs.
    You the parrot, you're Jesus.
    The parrot answers
    No, no, I'm Joseph, Jesus is the rottweiler just behind you, with Magdalene the kangal.

    A big bunch of years ago, I did a lot of cross country races. Not running by foot, but riding. My best horse, a champion, was a black male thoroughbred with a character lets say delicate; intelligent, dominant, aggressive and very volatile. But a fearless and courageous horse in life and races.
    The horse was with all the material (saddle etc...) in a box with the red ribbon (=dangerous biter) on the door at the hippodrome before the races while we were eating a sandwich at the snack.
    A guy arrives screaming there is a problem with your horse. We run the 400 yards and found a crowd in front of the box.
    At the door, my horse had plenty of blood around the mouth and was in rage trying to bite and kick everyone who tried to enter. A total confusion. My heart stopped, I thought that my horse had an haemorrhage...I'm told that someone is inside, his screams gave the alert.
    I talk to my horse, he recognizes me and let me get in. I rescue the unconscious guy covered of blood. A broken shoulder, a ripped face (25 stitches) and very badly beaten. Happily for him, good Samaritans intervened and distracted the horse before he kills him.
    Morality do not enter in a box for stealing the material or to drug a horse if you do not know this animal, specially when there is a red ribbon on the door...
    End of the story; my horse won the steeple chase-cross country race with me as a potatoes bag pompously called gentleman rider, I managed to stay on; 20000 dollars (a lot of money then) 6800 meters (4.22 miles) 39 obstacles in less than 9 minutes making a record that remained 25 years, more than 45 kph of mean speed (28 mph) on a very selective cross. The second was lost 250 meters behind, the others 400 meters. On 13 horses, 6 fell and 2 stopped unable to follow the pace...My blacky was a fierce warrior.
    30 minutes after the race, a good shower, and rolls on the sand, he was eating apples while watching with me the remaining races, amused like a boy watching a funny movie and eating pop corns.
    After thinking over a lot, I renounced to throw a quidam in the box to put my horse in good mood before racing. Too many legal problems as my lawyer explained to me.

    true story with an ending you can decide on.
    Punter in stolen car in the UK racing in front of police ( its a sport in the UK), forgets where he is and rounds a corner at high speed only to run into the kids ( didnt kill any but injured many) crossing the road to go to school. All the parents right there
    Cops cant get to him but when they do he is dead on the ground.
    I think they charge like 60 people with manslaughter
    The school was a mosque.

    I eat my peas with honey,
    I've done it all my life,
    It does taste kind of funny,
    But it keeps them on my knife.

    Try Pigeon with Peas

    I'm speaking just for myself, but I sometimes suspect that "Italian design" may situationally mean "it looks like everything that's popular now".

    The instructions on the package of sausages reads "cook for 4 minutes per side"

    Okay, so we're having sweet potatoes, greenbeans and cornbread with them, so 12 minutes, I guess.

    In the spirit of the dumbing-down. We have this to look forward to

    In the UK the British Horse Racing Aithority has to approve race horse names.
    They turned down the name Norfolk and Chance...

    Try commentating (the name) in a thick Irish accent, and you can understand why....;)
